Sella, created by the design duo behind Sella Concept (Tatjana von Stein & Gayle Noonan) is a totally new neutral shade, imbued with a sense of warmth that is in tune with their individual tastes.

The beauty of the colour lies in its subtle tonality; the spectrum of different tones come to the fore and recede depending on its surroundings and light, making it very versatile and a great neutral when paired with other colours.

The art of finding the perfect pairing.

Some colours are simply better together. Whether it’s the contrast of London Brick BH.07 against the depth of London Brown™ No.287, or the softer pairing of London Plane™ No.200 and Beata White BH.01, the right combination can completely change the feel of a room.

A beautiful example of how colour can celebrate a home’s original character.

We’re admiring this recently completed project by Ailsa Macconnell featuring John’s Pantry BH.24 from the Mylands x Beata Heuman The Dependables collection.

Originally developed for John’s office at 188 Hammersmith Road, this handsome ochre yellow brings warmth and character to traditional woodwork, panelling and architectural details, sitting beautifully alongside rich olive greens and soft neutrals.
